SeaTrend connects to existing onboard sensors during service setup. This means the service uses data already available on the vessel through the installed sensor environment. The connection is part of a fully integrated setup designed for use in existing operations and gives a defined starting point for performance tracking based on onboard sensor input.
Maritime and offshore engineering
SeaTrend hull and propeller performance tracking
Track hull and propeller performance with continuous onboard vessel data.
SeaTrend supports maritime performance teams that need reliable insight into how hull and propeller performance develops during normal vessel operation. The service becomes relevant when operators need to follow efficiency over time, assess performance developments and support compliance using vessel data gathered directly from onboard vessel systems.
Continuous insight into vessel performance
Without continuous vessel data, it becomes harder to assess gradual changes in hull and propeller performance and maintain a reliable basis for evaluating operations over time. SeaTrend is easily installed using the vessel’s existing onboard sensors and is supported by more than 60 years of hydrodynamic and aerodynamic expertise from Force Technology.
Challenges
When maritime teams lack continuous vessel data, it becomes harder to assess how hull and propeller performance develop over time and support operational decisions.
Compliance requirements increase the need for performance insight
As CII, EEXI and ESG requirements place greater focus on operational efficiency, maritime performance teams face increasing pressure to document and follow hull and propeller performance over time.
Performance changes are harder to follow
When vessel data is not gathered continuously, it becomes more difficult to assess gradual changes in hull and propeller performance over time.
Limited data reduces consistency
When vessel data is not logged automatically, it becomes harder to maintain a consistent basis for comparing speed, course, heading, draft, trim and list across operating conditions and time periods.
Benefits
Get continuous vessel data for tracking hull and propeller performance over time
Track documented efficiency improvements
Documented results from tracked vessels show an average efficiency improvement of 5% in hull and propeller performance.
Support compliance-related performance follow-up
SeaTrend supports ongoing follow-up on hull and propeller performance in situations where CII, EEXI and ESG requirements increase the need for operational performance documentation and efficiency insight.
